Farm Project Description
We, my partner (m36) and myself (f31) are seeking 1-5 acres to grow medicinal herbs, flowers, and fresh crops mostly fall crop for storage.
Goal is to provide community with bulk dried herbs, fresh tinctures and other medicines, fresh cut flowers, and fresh produce. There is also an agri tourism aspect to our farm vision which we can discuss with the potential land holder.
Using regenerative farming methods we wish to work with the land in a way that builds soil fertility and benefits pollinators.
We plan to raise rabbits for meat products, as well as chickens for meat and eggs. We plan to have goats for milk and cheese making.
